So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

[TarynH]

What time does the German fan fest start? Then we should know the last job.

1:30 am pst on the 18th.

For some reason I get really excited about the idea of running dungeons with a Blue, Red, Black, White party

This is one more reason I was hoping RDM was a tank, as it would then mean u have all 3 roles filled by the 3 main mages.

2 dps will balance it out?
Queue times would then go either way, either longer then it is currently (which is absolutely disgusting) or shorter times (have doubts)
RM is of course dps but i really do not think more dps is needed. A new tank and possibly healer is a better way to go

I can't wait I'm so excited. I'm going to bed early so I can wake up at 4:30. I need to purchase my stream when I get off today.

Well in the end I dont care what we will get as long as its fun to play. (But I do hope we will get more than two jobs otherwise I find it kinda lazy.)

My prediction: next to red mage we will have dancer and samurai.

[ErikMynhier]

I can predict one thing for sure. About 80% of the forum users...

Today: Ugh, you are wrong and your arguments are invalid. Obviously your opinions aren't as steeped in logic and lore as mine.

Tomorrow: How did I get it so wrong! Way to screw it up SE, don't you know my way was the only logical way! *salt salt salt* Well oh well RIP ffxiv! Don't you know I know what's best?

I always figured it would go like this:

Red Mage - DPS
Samurai - Tank
Dancer - Healer

With the datamine leaks, it seems that samurai is all but confirmed. It could be tank or dps, although it'd be pretty crazy if they introduced two dps jobs (and only dps). DPS queues would be insane.

I think it'd be more practical if it was 1 DPS and 1 tank. But if they're only making two new jobs, that would leave healer out. And that'd be sorta unfair. Dancer could be the first TP-based healer, and it would definitely make things interesting.

But who knows. I just can't wait for the fanfest and see what exactly is coming. I'm gonna hope for the best, and expect the worst.

Not necessarily, if what said is true about the new Jobs starting at lvl50, the only queue issues will be the lvl50 queues for a while, but people can still do FATEs and PotD til 60, since you won't be able to start the quests of SB on new Jobs due to not being lvl60 right when Early Access launches, and few will spend one night without sleep to level one of the new Jobs to 60, and most of those people already have a premade group, pretty much like what happened in HW launch.

Personally i don't see the point of adding another Greatsword-ish tank to the game, a Hammer Job would fit perfectly and would "sync" with Monk like Warrior "syncs" with Ninja (Blunt damage).

I want to believe his t-shirt is blue mage.

@ 1:07 - the blue mage spell is called spider web.
